Tackling today’s tough questions

John Woods reviews God's Book by Andrew Ollerton.

Andrew Ollerton skilfully tackles what he calls the Bible’s seven toughest topics.

They are: Creation: Can we take Genesis seriously in a scientific age? Exodus: What about strange laws and customs, including slavery? Conquest: Does God condone warfare and violence? Exile: Why does God condone warfare and suffering? Gospels: Do miracles and exorcisms really happen? Letters: Is the New Testament’s teaching on sex outdated? Revelation: What about judgement, hell and the afterlife?
